"The world is going mobile at an astounding pace. Estimates show 80
percent of global Internet access will take place through mobile
devices by 2016. Smartphones, tablets, and handheld devices have
reshaped communications, the global economy, and the very way in
which we live. The revolution is an electronic nirvana: for the
first time in human history we have sophisticated digital
applications to help us learn, access financial and health care
records, connect with others, and build businesses. But the one
trillion dollar mobile industry is still relatively young. Leaders
in both the public and private sectors need to figure out how to
apply mobile technologies or mobile devices to optimize education,
health care, public safety, disaster preparedness, and economic
development. And the ever-expanding mobile frontier presents new
challenges to law, policy, and regulations and introduces new
tensions; one person's idea of cautious deliberation can be
another's idea of a barrier to innovation. In Going Mobile, Darrell
M. West breaks down the mobile revolution and shows how to maximize
its overall benefits in both developed and emerging markets.
